Frequently asked questions

Can I get a title loan in Metairie, LA?

Louisiana has no separate title-loan act. You can start online; the lender will need to see the car and a lien-free (or nearly paid-off) title in your name.

Can I refinance my title loan in Metairie?

Often, yes. Some lenders let you refinance an existing title loan into a new loan with a different payment amount or term, and a new lender may be able to pay off your current one. Options depend on your vehicle's value, your income and Louisiana rules. Enter your details on our form to see what lenders in our network can offer you. It takes about 3 minutes.

How do I get a title loan in Metairie?

Gather your vehicle title in your name, a government-issued ID, proof of income and proof of address. Then complete our online form with your vehicle's year, make, model and mileage. A lender may ask for photos or a quick inspection to confirm the car's condition. If you're approved, you'll review the full terms before you sign. It takes about 3 minutes to get started.

Can I get a title loan on a financed car in Metairie?

Sometimes. If you still owe money on your car, some lenders may approve a title loan based on your equity, meaning the car's value minus what you owe. Others require a title that's fully paid off and in your name. Because policies vary, enter your vehicle and current loan details on our form, and lenders serving Louisiana will tell you what they can offer.

Can I get a title loan with a salvage or rebuilt title?

It's harder, but not always impossible. Many lenders require a clean title, while some will consider a rebuilt title after the car has passed inspection. Salvage titles are rarely accepted because the vehicle's value is hard to confirm. If your title is branded, mention it on our form so lenders serving Metairie can tell you upfront whether they can help. It takes about 3 minutes.

What is a title loan in Metairie?

A title loan is a loan secured by your vehicle's title. The lender holds a lien on your car while you keep driving it, and the lien is released once the loan is repaid. Because the car secures the loan, approval depends largely on your vehicle's value, not just your credit. Metairie drivers can start a title loan request online in about 3 minutes.

Do I need to visit a store in Metairie?

No. You can request offers online from a phone or computer. Some lenders, especially title lenders, may ask you to visit a location or send photos of your vehicle.
